One more to Sweden! Can΄t wait to see (and feel) what I have ordered (going to an exebition in Stockholm today, the M3W is said to be there!). Next thing to do is decide colour and trim. Red with black trim, green/black or black/tan (my wife says no to silver :(, but yes to a 3-wheeler :)), this will be hard!

That's funny, I had just the opposite reaction. It still didn't deter me though, it will just be another of those bridges that will have to be crossed when we get there.
How do others convince their better halves that a small, noisy car, with no weather protection and no luggage space is going to be fun?

How do others convince their better halves that a small, noisy car, with no weather protection and no luggage space is going to be fun? Negotiate: "If I get this, you can have that." And point out that lack of weather protection leads to small country inns. Plus, there's enough luggage space for a small overnight bag and a bottle of wine. It might even be bubbly upon arrival.

Just a thought about order dates, as dealers were all encouraged to pre-order with a certain number of orders, then sell them on to customers, doesn't it depend when your individual dealer ordered from the factory, as to where you are on the waiting list, in other words if someone ordered their car, say,back in April, but the dealer had already sold his allocation of slots, but someone else ordered in September from another dealer who still had a couple of slots available, wouldn't that guy get his car first?
